Optimally, what you'd like to do, is to pull off the contacts database, and make a copy of that file, though you won't be able to do that unless the device is rooted. If you want to make an approximation of the contacts based on what you can see from the content provider, you can always just try going and copying all the data entries from the contacts content provider, and then restoring them when you need to (though you'll probably want to do some sort of smart diff to make sure you don't duplicate things..)
